Which oxygen device best prevents Re-Intubation in High-Risk ICU patients?
NCT ID NCT07133698
First seen Jul 09, 2026 · Last updated Jul 10, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests three breathing support methods—high-flow nasal cannula, high-velocity nasal insufflation, and noninvasive ventilation—in ICU patients at high risk of breathing failure after being taken off a ventilator. The goal is to see which approach helps patients breathe on their own for at least 48 hours without needing the ventilator again. The study enrolls adults who have been on a ventilator for more than 24 hours and meet readiness criteria.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- High-flow nasal cannula, high-velocity nasal insufflation, noninvasive ventilation
- What this could lead to
- If one method works best, it could reduce the need for re-intubation and improve survival in ICU patients at high risk of breathing failure after a ventilator.
- What could go wrong
- This is a single-center trial with 105 participants, so results may not apply to all ICU patients. The devices may not significantly differ in effectiveness.
